I'm so confused. I'm shopping on udels website right now and literally majority of the pics show the products not covering knees or elbows. Isnt this a Jewish store marketed towards frum women? Why is literally nothing covering the knees?? I don't get it. I might as well be shopping on shein and have a better chance of things covering my knees! Honestly this seems insane. What's the point of Jewish stores exactly....?

Not that nice to call them out by name like this when they’re far from the only store to do this.

There are different standards in different frum communities. They may cater to a different community than yours.

The models may be tall and so the skirt that doesn’t cover their knees will be midi on a 5”2 person. I’ve heard tall people say they find clothes at Udel that cover their knees more than other frum stores.

They probably get the pictures from their distributors. If you feel the clothes aren't appropriate, don't buy from them. It would also be a kindness to let the vendor know your objections. If enough would-be customers protested, maybe they would buy their merchandise elsewhere.

I actually just bought some stuff from udel. I think they list the length of each skirt or dress. And on my short daughters they are very long (past midi)

I find their sizes to be true. The length is listed so it’s easy to measure and figure out if it’s long enough. And the models are often very tall. It’s true on a lot of websites.

As a short person I actually love udel. Everything is a normal length on me!

Most of the clothes actually cover knees. A lot of skirts come in different lengths as well; 23" and 25". It all depends on your height. They may be using tall models but don't assume it won't cover for you. Because dd is short, even the 23" covers fully. I'm taller and 25" covers me fully.

Does anyone know when the sale they are having today is set to end?

Look at the height of their models. Most of them are 5”9 or taller.

Also, some people like different lengths so they cater to different crowds. Read the description and you’ll be surprised it may just be good for you.

I think they actually started the brand to cater for teens who grew out of kidichic. My daughter did very well there for preteen-teen clothes.
Now that she is average women's height, most of the clothing is still long enough to cover her knees.

Lots of frum clothing lines size down in the pics and stuff look tighter and shorter.
Personally my teens love Udel, average height and skirt length more than cover their knees
